Opened as a speakeasy joint in 1929 (and then closed in 1933 with the end of the Prohibition), original owner Simon Lumberg used to cash paychecks in the upstairs booth behind bulletproof glass. Partially modeled on the Normandie, the day's popular cruise liner, the bar is lined with portholes and some seafaring memorabilia is spread throughout, giving Chicagoans a landlocked version of the luxury they'd never be able to afford.
Ask for owner Scott Martin and request the nickel tour. If it's not too busy (as it often gets on most evenings and during weekends) he'll be happy to show you the upstairs booth and answer all the questions about the mural lining the wallsincluding why one of the characters has been chopped out, causing the painting to crack and peel away.
Enough of the history, let's deal with the now. Low lit and extremely casual, Simon's features cans of Schlitz for $2.50 and drafts of PBR every day for $3. The jukebox is a strong contender for top 10 coolest in the city, and live music is featured on an irregular schedule. Classic formica-topped tables and padded chairs provide seating if you can't grab a seat at the long, dark bar, which runs the length of the room. Hungry? Grab some food from any number of the nearby restaurants and bring it in; the barstaff has no problem with it.
Starting on Thanksgiving Eve and running until spring rears its head, Simon's is one of the few places to feature glogg, a mix of brandy, port wine and grain alcohol, served warm with raisins and slivered almonds. At $4 a glass, it's great for those frigid evenings and has a kick that will clear your stuffy little head.

Network World - Former Federal Communications Commission chairman Reed Hundt made waves this week when he called the House spectrum auction legislation "the single worst telecom bill" he's seen.
The legislation, which would severely restrict the FCC's ability to place conditions on spectrum auctions, is seen as a non-starter in the Senate where a bipartisan group of senators including John Kerry (D - Mass.) and Jerry Moran (R - Kan.) have signaled strong opposition to the House approach to authorizing spectrum auctions. In this interview, we ask Hundt to outline his major objections to the House bill and describe what he would do differently to make more spectrum available.
LTE spectrum: How much do carriers have?
Outline your primary objections to the spectrum bill as it's currently written in the House.
The first one has to do with the bidding eligibility rules. The reigning auction theorists such as Paul Milgrom, along with many others, have learned over the last 20 years by studying spectrum auctions and many other auctions that the most important thing in any successful auction is to define carefully who is eligible to bid. The auctioneer needs to focus primarily on that, and it could mean setting conditions such as whether you have enough money in the bank to pay for the spectrum, whether you promise services to poor people or people living in rural America, or it could mean that are you are willing to have a competitor.
The House bill says that the FCC cannot do that. It's a repudiation of the smartest auction theorists in the world. The House bill, intentionally or not, repudiates all our expertise, wisdom and world-leading success in auctions by saying that the FCC can't define bidding eligibility.
The second issue has to do with another aspect of bidding eligibility. Many years ago when I was a spectrum auctioneer, we decided to auction spectrum for satellite radio. Sirius and XM were the winners. We decided that there would be two licenses in the auction and that the same firm could not buy both. So if you bid and won on one you weren't eligible to buy the second. The House bill would say that that's impermissible and that you couldn't stop one firm from buying both. The House bill will say that there can never be a rule that says one bidder can never buy anything. The American people should go like, "What? There's a rule against having competition, a rule against having innovators compete against each other?"
And the third thing is that when you have multiple firms building new networks, you're also going to have more investment than if you have just one firm. So by having rules against competition in the House bill, it reduces overall investment and it reduces jobs.
I've also read that the House bill bars the FCC from paying for spectrum and then opening it up for unlicensed use. Can you comment on that?
I was the guy who created the idea of unlicensed spectrum. Several technologists and economists came to me and said that we need spectrum for short hops between computers and cable connections. That technology became known as Wi-Fi and it completely transformed the Internet experience, as everybody who has a computer knows.

You can eye ball a private owner and tell if he/she takes care of there stuff or not. Either car is a very reliable car. The thing is find one that has been taken care of.

Oakland has a poor offensive line, well paid, but poor in skills. For that reason they need a QB that is mobile so he won't get sacked before he sets his feet. Matt Flynn is a good QB but he is not with a team that can use his skills. Pryor probably will start the season because he is mobile.
Matt Flynn had his best shot at Seattle. Don't know why he faltered but he must have so he was shipped to Oakland. He has not looked good during the pre-season. Well, at least he is making good money. That does not hurt. Would not mind being in his position.

Work of activists helped prevent Fukushima-style cluster of nuclear reactors on Long Island
By Juan Gonzalez/New York Daily News
The explosions and fires at four separate nuclear reactors in Fukushima, Japan, are a haunting reminder that nuclear power can produce catastrophic results. This was the nightmare scenario the nuclear power industry assured us would never happen. Karl Grossman, a SUNY Old Westbury journalism professor and author of several books on the nuclear industry, recalls such assurances going back to the 1960s. That was when New York's own power companies started planning a Fukushima-style cluster of nuclear reactors on Long Island.

It makes perfect sense why some of these newer titles are only available in SD. You can blame the studios. They would like to sell SOME Blu-Rays, after all. And, you can always get the Blu-Ray from Netflix in about 2 days, at most.
I don't really see Netflix as the way for me to catch the newest flicks out there. That's what my Netflix Blu-Ray subscription and RedBox are for. Honestly, instead of being annoyed by what's not available on demand, I simply look for what is available--the first season of the amazing Louie show is available in HD, for example. That makes me happy. I only caught a couple of episodes and now Dish is having a spat with FX.
The stuff loads super fast, too, compared to the disc.
Don't forget that you can still search on your computer and add titles to your instant queue.

PORTLAND — Each of Helaina Lake's two flights Tuesday morning was barely an hour long, but they tired her out.
Still, she beamed as her wheelchair was rolled out of the arrival area of the Portland International Jetport shortly before noon, toward the relatives who rushed to greet her.
Lake, a 24-year-old Army sergeant from Livermore Falls, came home Tuesday for the first time in nearly a year. She was seriously injured in Afghanistan when a suicide bomber attacked her unit in June, killing several soldiers.
She had 18 surgeries at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., where doctors worked to repair broken bones and treat burns.
"She's made a lot of progress. Even the doctors are impressed," said Jeannine Lake, Helaina's mother, who has been staying with her daughter in Maryland, along with Lake's 2-year-old son, Aden, since summer.
"It's the food I feed her," she added.
There's a lot more of Mom's food coming for Lake, who will be home until January, when she must return to Walter Reed for more surgery and rehab.
She's now able to walk, Jeannine Lake said, but only a few steps at a time.
The return to Maryland seemed far off Tuesday for relatives who mobilized a full-scale welcome on short notice: The hospital told the Lakes less than 10 days ago that she would be allowed to return to Maine for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day.
Jeff Lake, a South Portland firefighter who is Helaina's uncle, said the family really didn't do too much, even though the welcome included a contingent of first responders to cheer her through the airport terminal, a limousine and police escort to take her home, and arches formed by upraised fire truck ladders that her entourage passed under along the route from Portland to Livermore Falls.
"We're 60 miles away," said her brother, Charles Lake, as he waited for his sister in the terminal. "Nobody knows her and there are people lining the road to greet her."
"It's unbelievable," said Jeff Lake, who arranged to have two South Portland fire trucks form an arch on the way out of the airport. "All you've got to do is whisper and things happen."
Helaina Lake said she was just looking forward to enjoying the holiday. She brushed aside talk of a "hero's welcome."
"So many other people deserve it more than me," she said.
Lake said her recovery is going well and she appreciated the outpouring of support Tuesday and thanked everyone who had supported her and her family over the last five months.
"It's good to be home," she said. "It's been hard to wait."
Livermore Falls has only about 3,000 residents, but on Tuesday it seemed that many of them were in Portland. More than a dozen firefighters were there, along with many of Lake's aunts and uncles.
Even the limo driver was from Livermore Falls. Damon Rodzen said he works for Atlantic Limo, and when the order came in for a sleek stretch Chrysler for Lake, he knew that nobody else would drive it.
"When I found out that she was coming home, I called in," said Rodzen, whose younger brother went to school with Lake.
Bernal Lake hadn't seen his daughter for nearly a year because his restless leg syndrome limits his ability to travel. He stayed at the family's farm to tend the animals when his wife went to stay with Helaina as she recovered.
On Tuesday, he was the first one down the ramp to lead his daughter off the plane.
As the family made its way out of the terminal, Bernal Lake had his arms full with Aden, and Jeannine Lake was carrying blankets and jackets. So it fell to Maurice Castonguay -- another uncle -- to push Lake's wheelchair, a task he was happy to do.
"She's also my goddaughter," he said as he helped get Lake situated in the limo. "I made a promise to take care of her."

About New Found Glory
New Found Glory - Band History
New Found Glory began in 1997 in Coral Springs, Florida as the project of two high school teens. Later that year, the band released their first EP It's All About the Girls via Fiddler Records. They quickly became fairly successful locally and around the East Coast. Soon, the band signed a deal with Eulogy Recordings and released Nothing Gold Can Stay (1999). However, they had barely put the album out before they were snatched up by Drive-Thru Records. The move proved to be beneficial, however, as their follow up New Found Glory (2000) peaked at number 107 on U.S. Billboard charts and went on to be certified gold. Sticks and Stones (2002) did exponentially better, catapulting them to number 4 on U.S. Billboard charts. This was followed by Catalyst (2004) which peaked at number 3, marking the peak of the band's success. From there, the band would decline slightly in terms of commercial popularity, but not much. Coming Home (2006) would be their last full-length with Drive-Thru, peaking at number 19 on Billboard, although Not Without a Fight, released through Epitaph Records, peaked at number 12. The band continues to record and tour, and though pop-punk is no longer as popular as it once was in the mainstream, they continue to receive strong support from their fans. For this reason, make sure to get your New Found Glory tickets early.
New Found Glory - The Music
New Found Glory play bright, poppy pop-punk, drawing comparisons to bands like Blink-182 and MxPx. The band also draws inspiration from the hardcore scene, as guitarist Chad Gilbert hails from hardcore punk band Shai Hulud. Regardless, their music is accessible to even those who would never listen to heavy music, as it is primarily hook driven and concerned with being catchy.

As they fly through the air, bees – like all insects – acquire a positive electric charge. Flowers, on the other hand, are grounded and so have a negative charge. Daniel Robert at the University of Bristol, UK, and colleagues set out to investigate whether bumblebees (Bombus terrestris) were able to make use of these signals.
To test the idea, the team created artificial flowers, filling some with sucrose and others with quinine, a substance bees don't feed on. To start with, the bees visited these flowers at random. But when a 30 volt field – typical for a 30-centimetre-tall flower – was applied to the artificial blooms containing sucrose, the team found that the bees could detect the field from a few centimetres away and visited the charged flowers 81 per cent of the time. The bees reverted to random behaviour when the electricity was switched off.
"That was the first hint that had us jumping up and down in the lab," says Robert. The result suggests the bees may use the electric field as an indicator of the presence of food, much like colour and scent do. In the absence of a charge, they forage at random.
Next, his team looked at whether the bees were influenced by the shape of a flower's electric field, which is determined by the flower's shape. By varying the shape of the field around artificial flowers that had the same charge, they showed that bees preferentially visited flowers with fields in concentric rings like a bullseye: these were visited 70 per cent of the time compared to only 30 per cent for flowers with a solid circular field.

book dealers' descriptions and catalog records
Mike Widener (Rare Book Librarian at Yale Law Library) wrote a great post about his practice of adding dealers' descriptions to catalog records of rare books; Jeremy Dibbell included it in his link roundup; John Overholt tweeted about it; and then the conversation began. I've storyfied it and embedded it below (you can also go straight to Storify to see it). I wanted to capture the conversation, but we all also wanted to hear a wider range of responses and have a longer conversation about the value and potential pitfalls of this practice. It'll end up on the EXLIBRIS-L listserv as well, so I'll include a link to all that when it happens (thanks, John!) but in the meantime, read and comment:

Services and Amenities
Mailing Information
Click here for mailing information on campus.
Network Connectivity, Computing, and Telephone
Each resident has access to the Internet in their housing unit. There are also email kiosks located throughout campus, and two large computer labs on-campus which are available for student use. Should a student choose to bring a computer to campus, they are encouraged to run anti-virus software prior to arrival. For additional information, visit www.gvsu.edu/it/.
All students who are residing on campus may obtain free Virus Protection for their wired computers.
Phone Service
Each housing unit (with the exception of South C/D/E) also includes local phone service as part of the room and board fees. Students must plug in their own landline phone for this service to work properly. Long distance service is not offered, but can be accessed with a personal phone card. As an alternative, students could use a personal cell phone. All students are encouraged to bring a landline phone to campus and hook it up for local use, as this is the primary contact number between students and the university.
Student ID Information
During the summer orientation program, first-year students are issued a Grand Valley State University Identification Card. This card has the student's picture and G-number on the front. The back has a magnetic strip and meal plan bar code. The student will use this ID card for their entire time spent at the University.
This card is also used for the following:
- To check out library books
- Admission to the Recreation Center
- ID for University bus service (The RAPID)
- ID for check cashing on-campus
Should a student need a replacement card they are asked to visit the cashier windows on the first floor of the Student Services Building in Allendale. There is a minimal replacement fee.
Laundry Services
Each living center has a laundry room with multiple washers and dryers. The washers and dryers are operated by swipe cards, separate from the GVSU ID Card.
Students no longer need quarters to operate the machines, however, they must provide their own detergent, softener, etc.
If a laundry card is lost, students must purchase their own from a VTM machine and load it with funds. Laundry cards are recycled, and students turn them in at the end of the year. If no laundry card is returned, the student will be charged $25 to his or her student account. For safety and security, it is suggested that students stay with their laundry until completion.
During check-in, each student in the first-year living centers are issued a brass key that will allow them access to their unit's door and to the mailbox for their unit. Each student will also be issued a swipe card that will allow them access to the front door of their respective building.
Should a student lose or damage either key they should report this to their hall staff immediately so that a loaner key can be issued and new keys ordered. Students are billed for both via their student account.
Lofting Instructions
The lifestyles of students today requires more options and versatility. That's why our furniture allows students more living space and greater flexibility. Lofts are a great way to maximize the space in your room and to create a more unique living space for you and your roommate. By lofting, bunking, or trundling, the options are endless and no tools are required. All furniture is movable and loftable in freshman living centers. Please, for safety reasons, no new construction of lofts is permitted.
Students are encouraged to arrange the furniture provided by the University in order to personalize their living area. Establishing a mutually agreed upon plan by both roommates is suggested. Each student will have a bed with safety rail (twin extra-long mattress), three-drawer dresser, bookshelf, desk, organizer, desk chair, and wardrobe.
The furniture in the following living centers/apartments can not be lofted: Niemeyer East/West, and South C/D/E.

Just like the EA Sports range, Dragon Ball Z games, in particular the Budokai range, have taken to having yearly releases. Since the original release of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai on the PS2 in 2002, we've seen new incarnations yearly, with Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 set for release later this year. The Budokai series, while questionable at times, the games are probably the most solid of all the Dragon Ball games. The PSP jumped the bandwagon quite late with last year's decent Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai and just like the sun rising tomorrow, a year later we have a sequel.
Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai 2, suffixed with Another Road in the US, is very similar to last year's game but it has added a few things. The main change is in the story. While past Dragon Ball Z games have merely fiddled with the main story line, Another Road takes a slightly different approach. You play as Future Trunks, in a timeline where he's already gone back in time, beaten all the baddies there and come back to give things a final clean up. Upon helping to rebuild the future, the Tenkaichi tournament is back up and running and Trunks enters. When he enters, the whole fiasco involving the revival of Boo happens to take place, and Trunks must now fight them off.
Since he can't tackle the situation on his own, he goes back to the past to get Goku and co. to come to his time and help with the fight (in an upgraded time machine that fits many people). While somewhat new, the story is still relatively simple and adds a few things that may seem odd. For example, in order to drag out some stages, you're set to fight against "puppets" that resemble Z fighters that are being controlled by Babidi. Then again, it's a (barely) plausible excuse to be fighting against Cell and Frieza in the future. A few GT tidbits manage to slip in as well. The story is again driven a series of talking heads and you can pick and choose your paths, depending on whether you want to race through or see everything.
Through out the story mode, you have a bit of a strategy element added into the stages. Basically, you're placed into the stage and are required to fly around while killing off enemies. There is no shortage of enemies, but you have senzu beans that give you "lives" and help revive comrades that you might have with you. Other than killing enemies, you need to protect cities that are being attacked and complete random objectives, such as "defeat Dabura in less than 60 seconds" or "don't allow cities to drop below 40%". If a city has been damaged, you can stand next to it and watch it be restored, as your health is boosted as well. It's an element that has been seen in the second and third Budokai games on the PS2, and apart from the fact that its ugly, works well.
Outside of the story mode, you have an Arcade mode and Z-Trail mode for single players, as well as ad-hoc multiplayer. The Arcade mode is just like any traditional arcade mode, which may be a tad long for a handheld experience but a spare half an hour should get most of it done. The Z-Trail has three separate modes: Survival, Time Attack and Challenge. The first two are self-explanatory but the Challenge mode is a nice diversion. With challenges such as beating the opponent with lower health or cause X amount of damage, it provides variety where the story mode doesn't. Not forgetting to mention, there are fifty of these challenges, so they might take you some time and experimenting. Ad-hoc multiplayer is the minimum that we'd expect and it works fine, though anyone wanting online play will have to wait for the Wii edition of Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
As mentioned, the battle system is very similar to the one in the previous Shin Budokai, which in turn is very similar to the one in Budokai 3. There have been a few subtle move additions and changes and the camera is more dynamic. It isn't strictly stuck at the traditional angle. Instead it will follow your character and is at an angle that resembles the Budokai Tenkaichi camera. Still, the game remains a somewhat traditional fighter. The biggest change to the system has been the addition of booster cards. Through out the game you'll be able to buy and find booster cards that can be used to customize the stats of your character. For example, boosters can range from level 1 to level 9 and will boost the specific stat by that level. Each character will eventually have nine card slots but often they'll need unlocking. The system works really well and can make a reasonable difference to how the game is played.
The fighting engine itself is one of the better ones on the PSP, simply because it doesn't explicitly depend on complex inputs that otherwise would not be well facilitated on the system - as seen in games such as Street Fighter on the PSP. However, it does make it rather simple. Which would've been fine if the characters had some reasonable differentiation between one another. Sure, the roster has been increased from 18 to 24, but the same issue of sameness rears its head, where most characters are almost identical. Most players are likely to be vets of DBZ games, so its likely that they've gotten around this issue or moved on entirely. However, neither the game nor the manual does a good job of explaining the intricacies of the fighting system so anyone who is just starting off will end up being disadvantaged.
So as it stands, you have a game with a story mode that will likely take around eight to ten hours to complete, depending on how dedicated they are to completing the story 100%. Outside of this, you've got the other modes, which are reasonably substantial and options to buy in-game items that will help customise your game and profile within the game. So long as fans of DBZ aren't expecting the game to be revolutionized in anyway, they're likely to be totally appeased by the experience. For a simple game, it would've been fine for more casual fans that are looking for a simple fighting game, had some of the intricacies been explained better.
Graphically, the game is virtually identical to last year, bar the camera. So in battle, the graphics are incredibly impressive and close to their console counterparts. No manner of the spark and over-the-top action has been spared from the game. It definitely ranks as one of the more impressive PSP spectacles. However, the new additions of the overworld are in very low detail 3-D and come off as very ugly and off-putting. In terms of the audio, the voice work is, again, limited but used in the more important parts. Thankfully, there is the option of having either English or Japanese voices. The sound effects are somewhat samey, though appropriate and the music is fairly well composed even though it isn't quite as varied as it probably could be.
In reality, there really isn't enough added into Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai 2 – Another Road for it to be considered a sequel. Furthermore, despite the small changes, the game is very similar to what we played last year. It's not bad, it's just that you'll be disappointed if you expected anything radically different. Still, as far as PSP fighting games go, it manages to be one of the better ones because it doesn't need the PSP or your thumb to do things that it simply can't. This is especially true if you're a fan of Dragon Ball Z. We just hope that next year's edition will actually bring something new to the table and maybe even make it more accessible for fans that haven't yet jumped aboard.

SCARBOROUGH — State officials have ordered a pet shop in Scarborough to quarantine its puppies because a young Siberian husky tested positive for parvovirus and died soon after it was purchased from the store.

The state has put Little Paws Pet Shop in Scarborough under quarantine because a puppy sold there died after testing positive for parvovirus and giardia. Above, a sign on the store's front window on Friday, Feb. 8, 2013.
The animal welfare division of the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry was notified Feb. 1 that a puppy sold at the Little Paws Pet Shop on Payne Road had parvovirus, said Liam Hughes, the state's director of animal welfare.
Parvovirus is a highly contagious and potentially fatal disease for dogs. The young dog also tested positive for giardia, an intestinal parasite.
The store's puppies are under quarantine until at least Monday, Hughes said. A veterinarian will visit the store Monday to retest the dogs and decide whether the quarantine can be lifted.
The state did not order the store closed during the quarantine, although it was closed Friday because of the snowstorm, its owner said.
Julie Thomas of Madison, N.H., said the Siberian husky puppy, Shelby, was fine when she brought her home from the pet shop. Thomas said she continued the dog's booster shots on schedule.
On the fourth night after she brought Shelby home, Thomas said, the puppy was lethargic and throwing up.
The next morning, she brought Shelby to a veterinarian in Fryeburg who diagnosed the puppy with parvovirus and giardia.
"I was in tears because I know what (parvovirus) can do to a puppy," Thomas said.
Shelby stayed at the veterinary clinic, but was so sick two days later that Thomas knew the puppy probably wouldn't recover.
While Shelby was being treated, Thomas contacted the Little Paws Pet Shop and the state's animal welfare division.
Thomas said the pet shop told her she could bring the puppy back for a full refund of the $1,299 purchase price, but she couldn't do that because the dog was too sick.
State officials then told Thomas that she could surrender the dog to the pet shop without removing her from the veterinary clinic, she said.
Thomas did that and was notified the next day, Feb. 2, that Shelby had died.
"I know seven days doesn't seem like a lot, but Shelby was already part of our family," Thomas said. "It just tore us apart."
Hughes, the director of animal welfare, said the state contacted 12 to 15 people who bought dogs from the Little Paws Pet Shop recently.
"We wanted to let them know the puppies they have recently purchased were in the store at the same time the sick puppy was," Hughes said. Owners were advised to contact their veterinarians to discuss vaccines and symptoms.
Barbara Cross, the shop's owner, said she also contacted customers who bought puppies in the past few weeks, to find out whether the animals were sick. No other owners reported sick dogs, and the 23 dogs in the store are not sick, she said Friday.
The puppy that died left the store on Jan. 23 and became sick on Jan. 30, she said. The puppy had been vaccinated, Cross said.
"If that dog did have parvovirus, perhaps it caught it under the care of its owner," she said.
Cross and her employees have sanitized all kennels, equipment and surfaces, she said.
Hughes said the state will try to find out where the puppy got exposed to parvovirus and giardia so officials can try to stop it from spreading to other dogs. Canine parvovirus does not spread to people.

play time is good for creativity and imagination .... but yea .. why the world pays so much for sports men and advertising beats me ... neither has anything to do with productivity ! Improving productivity merely means replacing the hapless worker with machines and robots .... meanwhile the mega wealthy waste wealth and have low capital productivity ....Reply
Sport is such a dreadful waste of time and resources. If these people playing and the brain-dead who watch were to put their energies into something more productive, the world would be a far better place.Reply
What are the local boys not good enough. Dont get me wrong I think its great that they are getting international players to come down but geez its meant to be a local competition. Hate the 20/20 concept anyways so cricket in general has lost me on that one.Reply

Forbes has put that understanding into cold, hard numbers.
According to the magazine, the Tide is worth $110 million. (It earned $89 million in revenue in its most recent year, with a profit of $47 million.) That puts UA at No. 3 nationally.
No. 1 are the Texas Longhorns, by the way. (Who have their own television network, but do not have a head coach right now.)
The Auburn Tigers are ranked No. 11. Playing in the national championship game once again -- and perhaps winning it -- could increase the Tigers' financial stock.
Most interesting is how Forbes determined its its rankings. It wrote, "We consider each team's value to its athletic department, its university's academic endeavors, its conference and its school's local economy. Athletic value consists of football profit that is directed toward supporting non-revenue sports, like softball or gymnastics, while a team's value to academics consists of money that supports football scholarships or other non-athletic programming, like faculty support, non-athletic scholarships or a library fund. Conference value consists of revenue generated for other conference teams by participating in a bowl game, and a team's value to its local community consists of the direct spending injected by fans visiting the area on days of the team's home games."

Royal blue T-shirts with white letters made up the uniforms of Calhoun County students involved in the fourth annual Junior Law Enforcement Academy week, offered by the Anniston Police Department and Calhoun County Sheriff's Office. The week-long program encompasses aspects of police work including learning how to defuse domestic violence situations and clear buildings, said Anniston police training officer Emily Randles.
The program began with first aid and CPR training on Monday and will end with the students learning how to fire weapons — with lots of supervision, of course — on Friday, Randles said.
Alyce Sparrowhawk, 17, a senior from Jacksonville High School, said she was both nervous and excited because was touring the jail for the first time.
"I don't know how the inmates will react," she said prior to the tour.
Eric Brown, a junior at Weaver High School, said he has family in law enforcement. Wednesday's tour of the jail wasn't his first.
"You always see in movies how jails are so eerie. You would think they're nothing like that, it's just for show, but when you go in it's just like the movies," he said.
Brown and Sparrowhawk said they were both first-time participants in the academy and they'd both been enjoying the experience.
For Sparrowhawk, being able to go through the same thing police officers go through every day is what makes the academy special.
"Going through crime scene investigations and sketches makes you feel like you're actually out there on the job," she said.
Brown agreed.
"You get a deeper look instead of a public view," Brown said, adding that his favorite day of the program was Tuesday when they learned about clearing a building.
"You get to train like real officers do," he said.
The number of participants has gone up by three students since last year, Randles said. She said she hopes this year's group will tell other students and their friends about their experiences and encourage them to participate in upcoming years.
Anniston police Sgt. Curtis McCants has been with the program for two years. McCants said he was happy with the turnout of students, too, but said the Police Department should consider holding the academy a little closer to the end of the school year so more students will have a better chance to participate.
Curtis said 20 students were approved for the academy but only 15 were able to participate because of the timing.
"Most of kids who couldn't come was because of other obligations," he said.
Regardless of their dream profession, Randles said she believes the program is beneficial for any student.
"If they want to get into law enforcement they know what they're getting into and even if they don't they'll understand what we do and what we deal with and that's important," she said.

Our Pure Tahitian Vanilla Pods from French Polynesia are available in three varieties (Medium, Long & Super Long) ranging from 14 cm to 21 cm in length. These vanilla pods are extremely plump, moist and bursting with the characteristic floral flavour and aroma of Tahitian Vanilla.
These award winning vanilla pods are grown and perfectly cured in Taha'a, Raiatea and Bora Bora islands in French Polynesia.
These vanilla pods release a fruity aromatic bouquet featuring sublime and delicate floral overtones. Tahitian Vanilla Pods are considered considerably delicate to the Planifolia Vanilla Pods of Madagascan and other origins.
Because of the delicate nature of the aroma, Tahitian Pods are ideal for desserts with fruits, ice-creams etc. where intense heating is not required, also cosmetic applications such as body creams, lotions, soaps etc. (as it adds a subtle aroma) and savoury dishes (particularly fish & seafood)
